Prefab Sprout - Michael

All the jobs I've ever held, positions I have known

The one I was a fool to leave was

Right hand to the throne

Ambition took me speed of light

To god's exclusion zone

Michael if you're listening,

Michael who stayed true

One of us got out of line when paradise was new

One of us was exiled and the one who wasn't's you

Michael - help me write a letter to you know who

I will sign it "lucifer regrets..."

Can't forget his final words were

"ain't no comeback gonna come your way"

What if I pray ?

Michael the archangel listen.

Michael don't you see ?

We've come to stand for principles that

Prove free will is free

If you are on the side of good

Now where does that leave me ?

Michael - help me write a letter to you know who

I will sign it "lucifer regrets..."

Can't forget his final words were

"ain't no comeback gonna come your way"

He never could resist a sinner

Or ignore a distress call - but such a fall
